Really enjoyed the course has given be the confidence and tools to deal with difficult conversations

I thought the course was very interesting and informative and Sharon was a really good trainer. She has a great personality and I could really imagine myself speaking to her in the workplace if I had a problem. I do have a couple of constructive criticisms though; 1. I thought the first morning was incredibly slow and repetitive. It got to 1240 and I don't feel that we had learned anything that any of us didn't already know. I would've preferred to get straight into it and not wasted time with 'getting to know' the other attendees as I didn't think it was relevant on this particular course. 2. Better communication required from organisers of the event in terms of the location. There is no canteen on site and only a pretty bad coffee machine available. Half and hour for lunch is not really long enough to trek over to Greggs, queue, walk back again, eat and catch up quickly with work emails. I feel that it should be made clear in all correspondence that own lunch should be brought to the course and that there is no free tea, coffee or biscuits. I would have expected a cup of tea and a digestive for the cost of the course. Diolch yn fawr

Very insightful training, with space for more in-depth discussion and explanations. Delivered professionally and knowledgably by Arron and Charlotte.

I thought the course was excellent and fully met my expectations. Helen was a great instructor and it was really insightful being trained by someone that has first hand experience of the subject matter as the content came across as really genuine and authentic which helped with learning it all. The interactive elements of the course were very useful and didn't feel forced as we were given the option to not participate if we felt uncomfortable. Would highly recommend friends and colleagues to take this course.

Liked it

Good course opened my eyes

Absolutely brilliant training course would recommend to every employee good job al and si

Really good and enjoyable course would recommend it to everyone

The course exceeded my expectations and has given me a much better and informed understanding of mental health first aid and equipped me with the confidence to offer support to others. Helen was simply brilliant and to have someone teaching you with the ability to share their lived experience really brought the course to life. I don't think I have been so engaged in a course and it's content before and whatever you are paying Helen - double it, she is an incredible tutor!

Great course and well taught thanks for the two days
